- 19862: Karl Marx
- ... this paper, he went from a religious clergyman, to questioning his beliefs, to even stating some of the most non-religious Theories known to man. As an unpaid Naturalist, he traveled on the H.M.S. Beagle, across the coastline of South America. While being dropped off and left on the Galapagos Islands for a number of days, he began to watch the species on the Island. To sum it up ... It is more of a Christian, religious philosophy, and to tell the complete truth, I agree 100% with Huxley. Along with this theory, there are many others in which Darwin believes. For instance, he doesn’t have views of creation, he has views of his term: evolution. We were not created by a higher being, but have evolved from something that was already alive. An ape, for instance, is what he ... time believing any of these theories. I am a Christian, and not only do I believe in a higher being watching over us, but I believe in god. My views differ so much from Darwin’s, that I had a tough time reading about him. I tend to lean towards T. H. Huxley. Equality, in terms of survival is something that is very important to me. Just because I am ...
- 19863: The Automobile Tax
- ... the tax and slightly raising property taxes could greatly reduce this collection problem. Not only would this idea reduce collection problems, but it would also save Dallas residents money on their taxes. Saving money isn’t the key issue that members are focusing on though. The issue at hand that the city council members are focusing on is one of equity. This new raise in property taxes will help Texans to ... on this incoming revenue. I believe that the council members are correct in raising property taxes, as it would save citizens money in the long run. The ripple effect will turn out well. The city’s residents will save money, but in essence they’ll still be paying the tax. I also believe that this will take effect soon and the majority of people will agree, as it will be saving ... this idea will help to appease both conservatives and liberals as the government is still making money on the new plan. In the future, this plan will save people time and money, as they won’t have to pay additional fees every time they purchase a vehicle. It’s going to make for happier citizens of the Dallas area.

- 19865: In 1984
- ... history using this one number. They do not even need our permission. At the time it seemed like a great idea. Which is probably how we will be duped in the future. If it isn't bad enough that they admit they want to catalogue their citizens, our government basically admits that they need to watch them as well. There was a bill sent through Congress, which would force telecommunication companies ... They also passed an act called Digital Telephony. This bill states that the government will give a certain amount of money to large telecommunication providers (telephone mostly) to rework their networks so that the government's men can attach themselves and listen to our private conversations. Let me repeat myself here, they are using OUR money to watch us. It is great that they can catch a criminal easier but it is not worth it to loose that freedom and live in fear. While we in the U.S. are busy at our jobs in the rat race, the government is pulling the wool over our eyes. They are working towards ways to keep us in line. I don't know if there ...
- 19866: Black Civil Rights
- ... the midst of prejudice whites with no way out. When the blacks came over Jim Crow laws were incorporated. With these laws it was near impossible for blacks to rise in the white world. Booker T. Washington was the first black to rise to any prominence in this time. In the early 1900's blacks however began to fight back. In 1909 black advancement organizations began to increase all over North America. Unfortunately with the rise of these groups also came the rise of racist white groups like the ... civil rights and his assassination in 1963 did cause setbacks. The blacks in the North felt that they had to do more than the blacks in the South to make a difference but they didn't have a voice. That was until Malcolm X joined the voice of Martin Luther King Jr. Malcolm X did make a difference but he was not liked by many whites and even was strongly ...
- 19867: The New Imperialism
- The New Imperialism Throughout history Imperialism has occurred all around the world, and has been determined by many factors. The New Imperialism that took place in the late 1800's was influenced by two main factors, the Industrial Revolution and the development of technology in the West. The vast resources of Asia and Africa, impulsed the West to take over these two continents in the ... in Africa, through the Royal Niger company, which supposedly in a treaty offered protection and money to the tribes of the Niger river delta for their land, which was rich in resources. These tribes couldn't even read the treaty they were signing, "We understand the said Royal Niger company have full power to mine, farm and build in any portion of our country."(Human record, pg.92) This type of ... 17). The greatness of this invention and the possibilities it brings is fundamental for the development of the imperialism.

Throughout the new Imperialism they're where some key things that gave such power to the Westerners, without those ...
- 19868: Media Mergers
- ... are rising to the surface, as to how much power and information these “mega-merged” companies hold. One more merger could mean massive control by only a few men over what is sent into American’s households. Now that networks are allowed to own their own programs, information flow could be corrupted beyond recognition. Should the people of the free world be wary of what these mergers have in store? I ... it would be effortlessly swept under the rug. The conglomeration of media corporations and other companies is a deadly mix of tainted information just waiting to escape. Sometimes there are just some companies that shouldn’t merge, some fish that shouldn’t be gobbled up, and should be left alone for the good of the public. If these fish are not left alone, they might have the same end as Disney’s oil soaked little mermaid.

- ... prejudice, but by their actions the Cunninghams, the Ewells, and the jury are all prejudice. The Cunninghams are prejudice because of the things they do. Mr. Cunningham showed up at the jail for Tom Robinson's lynching. After the lynching Mr. Cunningham does not seem very prejudice as he did before. "Get aside from the door Mr. Finch" Likewise the Ewells are Prejudice because of the decisions that they make. They accused Tom Robinson of Raping Mayella. Mr. Ewell spit in Atticus's face at the court house. After Tom was dead Mr. Ewell told Mrs. Robinson that she couldn't walk down the street anymore. "You Niger Lover." Furthermore the jury is also prejudice because of the way that they treat Tom Robinson. They automatically believed that Tom was guilty because he was black. ...
- 19870: Senator Joeseph McCarthy - Lif
- ... is also a dispute about exactly how many flying missions he actually went on. Sometime in 1944, McCarthy attempted to beat Alexander Wiley for a senitorial seat in Wisconsin but was defeated. But that wasn't all. He was already planning to run against Robert La Follette (a senator who's seat was up for re-election in just two years). La Follette would be a difficult one to beat because he was a pretty well known man. But Joe fought hard and spent a lot ... the first of a series of claims that he had the names of 205 "known communists" who were employed by the State Department. This fueled one of the many controversies, over McCarthy, because there wasn't one reliable copy of the speech. The dispute was over how many names McCarthy said he actually had. He later claimed that he had only said 57. Although, now there is substantial proof that ...
